Hua Hin is unlike any other beach resort in Thailand . If you're looking for bright lights and the frantic all-night action of cabarets and discos, you may be disappointed here. However, if you enjoy walks through the quiet winding streets of a friendly coastal village, sampling delicious seafood in restaurants overlooking the brightly lit fishing boats on the Gulf of Thailand or a round of golf on one of the several international standard links, Hua Hin could very well be what you're looking for; Hua Hin has a special character all its own.

    

   Hua Hin is located approx. 190 km south of Bangkok and has a population of around 60,000 people. Hua Hin has one of the lowest rain falls in Thailand and being a coastal town gets that lovely sea breeze. Due to the excellent weather and climate Hua Hin was chosen as the Royal resort. The King of Thailand has his summer palace adjoining the beach and almost every year spends a few months in Hua Hin.

    
  
   Though the beaches and swimming pools are always beckoning, the Hua Hin area also has shopping, temples, waterfalls, caves, quaint neighborhoods and historical sites that will create memories for all members of the family. A leisurely drive though the countryside, where one can see rice paddies and pineapple plantations, children playing in the canals, and the beautiful scenery of Prachuapkirikhan and Petchburi.
